Rosen Curette

Description

Rosen Curette

The Rosen curette is a small curette for otologic microsurgery. Otologists take it up when they need to shave away a little bone or soft tissue deep in the ear.

A curette for tiny spaces

Ear surgery often requires shaving away a sliver of bone to gain a better view. A micro curette does this with small, controlled strokes. So the surgeon removes just enough and no more.

Straight or curved

You can order a straight or a curved version. Both measure roughly 16 cm, according to our catalogue. The curved shape reaches around the canal wall. The straight shape, meanwhile, gives a direct approach.

Where it fits

In stapes surgery, the surgeon may need to remove bone that hides the stapes. Then a small curette clears the way. Surgeons also use curettes to clean granulation from the middle ear.

Choosing a shape

Consider your usual angle of approach through the speculum. If the view is straight, the straight curette works well. Otherwise, the curved version helps. Many surgeons keep one of each, so they can switch mid-case when the view changes.

Caring for your Rosen curette

Remove bone dust from the cup quickly, before it hardens. Next, clean the curette in an ultrasonic bath if your facility has one. Then dry and sterilize it.
